2026 Sewer Equipment HX-12 27 Hydro Excavator
Hydro-excavation productivity comes down to two numbers working together: water flow at the wand and airflow at the tube. Trucks specced with mismatched ratios stall out, either starving the dig with too little water or filling the debris body before the vacuum can keep up. Matching pump output to blower capacity, and matching both to the debris tank volume, is what keeps a crew on the hole instead of running back to dump or refill.
Haul more spoils per trip with a 12-yard debris tank and shorter overall length than comparable units
Reach the dig with a DIG DEEP telescoping boom extending 26 ft without repositioning the truck
Cut through compacted material using 10 GPM at 3,000 PSI with hot and cold water capability
Train new operators faster on simple hydraulic controls with no computer-controlled dig systems
Empty fast at the dump site through a full-opening rear door
The HX-12 27 pairs a 12-yard debris tank with a 26 ft DIG DEEP telescoping boom and a 10 GPM at 3,000 PSI water system, so spoils capacity, reach, and dig power line up for a full shift on site. As a new 2026 build with 1,416 delivery miles and 43 chassis hours on a CM2450 X137B chassis, it arrives ready to title and put to work, with hot and cold water capability and a full-opening rear door for fast unloading. Simple hydraulic operation, no computer-controlled dig systems, means fewer fault codes and a shorter learning curve for newer operators.

When a mainline blocks up, you need a truck that starts reliably and stays running on the job, not one that's waiting on a computer reboot or a part...
